The Golden Circle is Iceland’s most popular sightseeing route, offering a perfect mix of natural beauty, history, and geology. It includes three iconic stops: Þingvellir National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site where the tectonic plates meet; Geysir geothermal area, with its erupting Strokkur hot spring; and Gullfoss, a breathtaking two-tiered waterfall. This route showcases the best of Iceland’s landscapes in a single day!

Thingvellir National Park holds both historical and geological significance in Iceland. It is located approximately 40 kilometers northeast of Reykjavik and is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The park was the site of the Alþingi, the ancient Icelandic parliament, which was established in 930 AD and held sessions until 1798. Visitors can explore the historical remains, including the assembly site and the Law Rock. Additionally, Thingvellir is situated in a rift valley where the Eurasian and North American tectonic plates meet. This unique geological feature allows visitors to walk between the continents and witness the visible cracks and fissures caused by the shifting plates.

Kerid Crater: Kerid Crater is a volcanic crater located in southern Iceland, approximately 30 minutes from the capital city, Reykjavik. It is part of the Western Volcanic Zone and is estimated to be around 3,000 years old. The crater is approximately 55 meters deep and 270 meters wide, with a stunning lake at the bottom. The lake’s vibrant blue color against the red volcanic rock creates a mesmerizing sight. Visitors can walk around the rim of the crater, descend to the lake, or even take a boat ride during the summer months.

Fridheimar Tomato Farm: Located near the town of Reykholt, Fridheimar Tomato Farm is a unique and sustainable agricultural attraction in Iceland. The farm specializes in growing tomatoes using geothermal energy, making it possible to cultivate fresh tomatoes year-round. Visitors can take guided tours to learn about the innovative farming techniques, witness the tomato plants thriving in the geothermal-heated greenhouses, and even taste the farm’s delicious tomato-based products, such as soups and sauces. The farm also has a cozy restaurant where visitors can enjoy a meal surrounded by the lush tomato plants.

Geysir: Geysir is a geothermal area in southwestern Iceland, known for its erupting hot springs. The most famous geyser in the area is the Great Geysir, which has been active for centuries. Although it erupts less frequently now, its eruptions can reach up to 70 meters in height. The nearby Strokkur geyser, however, erupts more regularly, shooting boiling water up to 30 meters high every few minutes. Visitors can witness these natural phenomena, explore the geothermal features, and even relax in nearby hot springs.
